Can being medically "infected" on purpose with hookworm cure asthma?
I've seen contradictory opinions on the net. Thanks.

The jury is still out on that. Even the article in the N.Y. Times about it was inconclusive (see link, below), but, bear in mind that hookworms KILL 65,000 people a year, so, I certainly wouldn't try it until the FDA has approved it, and that could take years.

Good luck!... ☺
